We don't disallow them. You just need to make sure you're fetching and
pushing them, because they aren't by default. You can set this in your
kernel.org origin section of .git/config:

[remote origin]
  ...
  fetch =3D +refs/notes/*:refs/notes/*

And then push them separately as "git push origin refs/notes/*".

Since frontends clone with --mirror, the notes will be available on all
git.kernel.org nodes (e.g. see
https://git.kernel.org/mricon/hook-test/c/a8d310d4c13)

If you do start using notes, I strongly suggest you pick a dedicated
refspace for it instead of putting things into the default
refs/notes/commits, e.g.:

git notes --ref crosstree [...]

This will create refs/notes/crosstree that has less of a chance to be
clobbered by someone else's use of notes.
